WHAT WE DO
AsiaLink partners are working in 20 villages around Krishna. Seminars are conducted to train Indian nationals for local church work. Children's ministries aim to relieve poverty and hardship among orphans through clothing, food and basic education. There are around 60 children being educated at the Christian school.
WHAT YOU CAN DO

£20 provides one orphan with food, shelter and school books for one month. £30 helps keep the training school operating each month. £50 provides 25 Bibles in indigenous languages. Give to India ministries here.

PRAY FOR

India has more (and larger) people groups with no Christians, churches or workers than any other part of the world. There are still large numbers of tribal groups that are unevangelised or under-evangelised, among them the Sindhi with only about 300 believers from a 36 million population and the Bhill and the Gond with about 11 million population each but only a handful of believers. Pray for Indian nationals working to reach their own people. They face increased and more organised opposition and often persecution.

Bible verse

our Lord is greater than all gods - Psalm 135

Missions Quote

"Be much alone with God, and take time to get thoroughly acquainted. Converse over everything with Him. Unburden yourself wholly -every thought, feeling, wish, plan, doubt- to Him...He wants not merely to be on good terms with you, but to be intimate." - Horatius Bonar
